Welcome to the latest edition of Baby Matters.

In two months time, we'll all be tucking into turkey and unwrapping gifts. Can you believe there are only 55 shopping days left until Christmas? That's why in this issue of Baby Matters, we take a look at how to enjoy the festive season when you're pregnant. We give you some suggestions on fabulous outfits to make you look glamorous at Christmas parties. And we reveal how you can give yourself the perfect Christmas present - a fantastic birth.

We're also showcasing a selection of our winter warmers, gorgeous clothes that will keep you and your bump snug as the days get colder. You could go on a shopping spree if you enter our competition to win £50 worth of Blooming Marvellous vouchers.

Best wishes
Judy & Vivienne
